Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
Sent off Data Protection Act letter on 14th July received statement 10th August.
Calculated charges and sent off request for payment letter on15th August.
Received acknowledgement within 2 days assuring me that "I am investigating the matter fully and I will contact you with my findings within 5 working days".
The writer was Kathryn Ross, Customer Care Advisor.
I expect to hear tomorrow (although the Bank holiday may delay it).
Had a reply from prelim with an offer of £94 which they are crediting to my account.total of my claim comes to a total of £312 + interest with a further £40 from my recent statement.sent off my lba last week.
I sent of request for payment on 11th Sept for £92 and received reply on 22nd offering £10. That's how much it cost to get the statements - maybe they will be returning my own PO. Needless to say lba is going off tomorrow.
Sent off my lba today i though id already done it but couldn't find a copy of it in my file so just to make certain i sent it. Keep me posted on how you get on.
Creation must have recieved my lba Cause they rang me at work today asking for me to call them back. I didn't. I didn't think they were supposed to call you at your place of employment
Sent off a "Response to Settlement" letter and received a second letter from Creation (JJB account) on 29th September offering me the balance of £82. £92 in total which was what I was asking for. Just waiting for the cheques now.
I also had a USC account with them. lba sent off for £744.10. Received an offer of £95. Needless to say "response to settlement" letter is going off on Monday.

This is my first success!!!!! Well it will be when I receive the cheque.
Yet another call from creation today leaving a message asking me to call them back. Yet again i haven't replyd as this is proberley another way to fob me off.
Just had another call from creation wanting to know if i was rejecting the offer of £94 which of corse i said yes. She advised me that they would send out response to this in a letter tonight.Time now for me to file my n1 i think.unless the offer is for the response letter is offering the full amount.
Juat had a call from Creation legal dept adviseing that a letter was sent on 10th Oct which i have not yet recieved refunding £334 all the charges, I will check the balance & then Ill have to cancel my court claim Ive already posted in litigation section .Opps!!!! & have just checked my balance over the phone & its correctWhat a result Eh!!!!
I also got cheques in settlement for both JJB and USC (Creation). Although they had reduced the USC sum slightly because I had included interest charges which I shouldn't have - an acceptable result.
They also told me that my cards had been cancelled but as I had cut them up at the end of last year it is no hardship.
they had reduced the USC sum slightly because I had included interest charges which I shouldn't have - an acceptable result.
Depends what interest you added - if it was interest you calculated that had been charged on charges then you are entitled to claim this back too - I'm gonna re-issue my prelim letter & claim compound contractual interest on all my charges
